However, as a result of the Sun's large angular size, solar<span> illumination is only partially blocked in the outer portion of the Earth's </span>shadow<span>, which is given the name penumbra. A penumbral </span>eclipse<span> occurs when the Moon passes through the Earth's penumbra. The penumbra causes a subtle darkening of the Moon's surface.</span>

Which particle may be gained, lost, or shared by an atom when it forms a chemical bond?
andrew-mc [135]

Electrons because the amount of valence electrons determines the bonds it can form and often times during a chemical bond or the forming of a compound an element will lose some of its electrons.

Finger [1]

Answer:

a) Binding Energy = 1084.266 MeV

b) Binding energy per nucleon = 8.28 MeV

Explanation:

Binding Energy, BE = \triangle M * 931.5

Where ΔM = Mass defect of Iodine-131

The mass of iodine-131 = 130.906124 u.

Number of protons in Iodine-131 = 53

Number of neutrons in Iodine-131 = 78

Mass of a proton = 1.007276 u

Mass of neutron = 1.008664 u

Total mass of the 53 protons in Iodine-131 = (53*1.007276)

Total mass of the 53 protons in Iodine-131 =  53.39 u

Total mass of the 78 protons in Iodine-131 = (78*1.008664)

Total mass of the 78 protons in Iodine-131 = 78.68 u

\triangle M = (53.39 + 78.68) - 130.906124\\\triangle M = 1.164 u

Binding Energy = 1.164 * 931.5

Binding Energy = 1084.266 MeV

b) Binding Energy per nucleon

The mass of the nucleon of iodine 131 = 130.906124

Binding Energy per nucleon =  1084.266/130.906124

Binding energy per nucleon = 8.28 MeV

The specific heat capacity of gold is 0.128 J/g C. How much would be needed to warm 250.0 grams of gold from 25.0 C to 100.0 C.
madam [21]

Answer:

3,200 joules

Explanation:

q = mcΔT = (250.0 g)(0.128 j/g°C)(100°C -25°C) = 3,200 joules
